Given the right conditions, corals can recover from coral bleaching. #BluePark Aldabra Atoll Special Reserve, widely considered one of the world's most intact marine ecosystems, is an example of this. But, we need to cut rising emissions to prevent coral bleaching in the first place.

Pete is lost in terms of modern war. I use the example of this outgunned Ukrainian army officer who successfully terrorized a Russian unit for weeks because she "did the math." At the time, someone commented, "yeah, in combat, 'I did the math' beats 'I can do 100 pushups' every time."
Ukrainian female soldier: Okay, I said the idea is this: There is enough time to empty one full can of 32 grenades and be gone by the time the return mortar fire reaches us. I did the math.
